Maybe you should spend some time actually talking to those soldiers who have
been over there in Iraq.  Maybe then you'd know that they are reelisting at a
record level to GO BACK to help finish the job, and that first time enlistments
are at a record level despite there being a war on.  Maybe then you'd also know
what those troopers know about the Iraqi people in general.  You'd know that
most of them are grateful beyond words that America took out Saddam and gave
them a chance at freedom.
